Dearest Beth,
I
wanted to write and Thank You so much for working with me to
obtain my beautiful, intelligent, loving German Shepherd Pup
Meggie that has transitioned well into our household as a family
member. Meggie thrives to learn. She has almost completed
Advanced obedience now. Her tracking skills in the Forest and
waters are incredible. I am so impressed with her natural
ability for personal and home protection. Meggie has one of the
best temperaments I have ever seen and is very socialable!. I
have worked with and trained German Shepherds for the past 20
years and never have I owned a pup like Meggie. She has required
little or no effort to train. She is absolutely amazing for only
being a bit over 5 months old now. She is looking to be a
supreme subject for Schutzhund. I am looking forward to sending
you updates!
Beth, Most of all. I thank you! Before I
contacted you I contacted other breeders. What a mistake!
Some never returned my messages, and for the breeders that did,
it seemed that they were too busy to talk and answer my
questions. You took the time and answered all my questions and
concerns and thank you so much for your patience due to my
worries. You made my experience so personable and that made me
feel comfortable.
I am looking so forward to
working with you again in the near future for another addition
to our household. I do know one thing! I will never waste my
times again looking at other breeders.
I would highly recommend anybody
looking at my testimonial and wanting a quality German Shepherd
pup / dog to contact Beth of Vom Eichen Hugel First. You
wont be sorry. And Beth's website is one of the best I have ever
seen!
Thanks again Beth for
everything!!!!!
Sincerely Debra and Meg

Beth,
Haus
has turned out to be a wonderful dog. One of the best looking
shepherds I have ever seen. His color and personality are superb.
I thought I would send you a picture of him . As you can see he is
beautiful. I thought you would like an update on him as I know I would if I had sold him.
Have a good day Beth and thanks again for Haus.

Beth,
Our
family just wanted to thank-you for our wonderful German Shepherd
(Condor.) The one attribute that you failed to let us know about
in your dogs would be the size of their hearts.
We
have two small preschool children and Condor has become their best
friend. For my wife and me it is such a good feeling to know that
we have another set of eyes watching our children’s every move.
He
won my wife’s heart one night when he stood up in our room and
softly barked to let us know that something was wrong in the
house. The next thing we knew our little girl came into our room
crying because she had fallen out of the bed.
The
relationship that Condor already has with our children is so
strong. Our backyard is always full of small children from the
neighborhood and there hasn’t been a child to get past
Condor without being licked and loved on.
One
of my nightly routines with Condor is to go for a long walk around
the lake in our neighborhood and there is hardly a night that I
don’t get stopped with comments about him being such a beautiful
dog.
Our
veterinarian after spending time with Condor told me that he was
one of the best looking, best temperament German Shepherds that he
has every seen. Once
again thank-you Beth, we loved working with you and we love
Condor.

Dear Beth,
Thank you so much for our
LuKa! After losing my Golden Retriever, Toby, my life was so
empty, but then we found you & your wonderful furry family. I
contacted a ton of people & you were the only person who
actually took the time out to respond to my inquiry by phone. We
found that extremely reassuring since most breeders never took the
time to personally talk with us at all, let alone right away. You
were so understanding & patient with all of our questions
& concerns that we felt very comfortable & confident
buying a puppy from you. We didn’t feel alone in our commitment
to LuKa. We could tell you had the same commitment to him &
all of your other furry friends as we do.
We loved being able to
meet you & your family. You all made us feel so welcome &
it was truly a pleasure to spend time with all of you. Your home,
the dogs & the horses are absolutely beautiful! Thank you for
opening it all up to us. The 27 hour round trip was hard to do in
just 2 days, but it was well worth it!
Our Vet was very
concerned about us getting a GSD due to the extremely poor
breeding in the American line, but she was thrilled when she met
& examined LuKa. He was everything & more than she had
hoped our long search would provide for us. Our goal was to find a
healthy & sound friend & you have provided that & more
with LuKa! We can’t go anywhere with him (and he goes everywhere
with us) that we don’t get stopped, but it’s so much fun to
talk about him. What parent doesn’t like to brag about their
son?! He is absolutely wonderful with all of the kids in the
neighborhood. He’s so gentle & patient with them. Luka has
more friends than we do!
I just can’t thank you
enough for allowing us the opportunity to share our lives with
such a wonderful & intelligent dog. It’s obvious how much
you love & care for the breed & for all of your dogs &
puppies. Keep up the excellent work.
Luka is doing great
with his search and rescue training
Sincerely,
Donna

Beth,
Just
wanted to thank you for your hospitality today. We are so
excited about our new puppy. You have a beautiful place and
excellent dogs. We have looked at many different breeders,
dogs and litters in the past 4 weeks. We were the most
impressed with your dogs.
PS:
My vet, Dr. Lehman, called me this morning and wanted to know
where I got Acka aka"Sugar". He said she was the
best German Shepherd pup he'd seen in a very long time.

Dear
Beth,
Cid, aka Major is almost
11 months old now and is everything my family (all 5 of us)
ever imagined he could be and far more considering his age.
He looks large for his age (weighs about 75-78 lbs), but is very
athletic and beautifully proportioned according to his vet.
Last night we were at my
oldest girls T-Ball game, and naturally Major was sitting in the
crowd with us (he goes almost everywhere). Someone else
came by with their 1 1/2 Year Old GSD and Major enjoyed the
visit, but the owners mainly wanted to know if I did
professional training. They had seen us walking Major
through the crowd and saw him doing as instructed...nothing big,
Beth, believe me. I assured them that I was actually just
a newbie at this stuff - all the while we spoke Major was
sitting by my side , while their dog was yelping, pulling,
wrapping the leash around his legs, etc. We ended our
conversation and the visit, mainly because he had to get his dog
back into the car - 'just will not behave'.
Beth, the part that prompted
me to write this note was the comments we got from the other
parents after the game. More than several people came up
to us and commented that he was so gorgeous, stunning, etc; but
they were equally, if not more, impressed with how well behaved Major
was. They especially liked how gentle he was
with the kids on the teams. Quite a few commented they
were not aware that GSDs were so good socially. The one
comment that stood out to me, came from a older gentleman -
whom claimed to be an 'expert when it comes to various breeds of
dogs' - he commented: 'Picture a Monopoly Board game, your
dog represents Boardwalk, while that other dog was Baltic
Avenue'., I tend to agree...Major is a WINNER.
I will send you a picture of
Major.

I just wanted
to thank you and your family again for your hospitality when we
picked up Argus. You have a very beautiful farm and your
dogs, WOW! Argus is doing fantastic. He is
really a beautiful German Shepherd. I have had dogs my
whole life and I think he may turn out to be the best
ever!! He is everything you said he would be, and is
definitely everything I was looking for in a new pup!
Thanks
again for everything,
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Thanks again for
Apollo! He has been a pleasure. We look forward to
getting up each day to see what he'll do. He has mastered
going up the stairs (not down yet, but I'm sure that'll come
soon). He now sits before we let him in the door and he
sits for his food. He is sooo smart and very eager to
learn. He has a wonderful personality and tremendous
spirit. His shepherding instincts have surfaced as he
tries to "shepherd" Oliver, our cat, around the
house. He is a wonderful addition to our family.

Thank you for allowing
us to visit your lovely farm. It is magnificent!
We very much enjoyed spending the time with you and your
puppies. It's obvious that you love what you do and I see
a bright future for your endeavor. I very much admire
and appreciate the value of your constant
socialization of the pups and your personal "hands
on" involvement. Your desire to contribute to the
quality of the breed is also quite admirable and your wonderful
attitude and enthusiasm becomes infectious after only a few
minutes.

Beth,
I wanted to take time and sit down and write you a Thank you for
our German Shepherd pup "ARI". I am a retired Law
Enforcement K-9 Handler from Florida. My wife and I have
looked at several other German Shepherd's before finding "ARI".
In this day and time purchasing almost anything can be a headache.
Dealing with you was an extreme pleasure!! "ARI"
has been a great addition to our family. He gets along great
with our 9 year old son and our other dogs. He is very smart
and has been learning his obedience well.
Linda says he has good personality of his own. He likes to
carry around his food dish and play with empty 3 liter bottles.
We are so Happy with "ARI" and again very Thankful to
you for the type of German Shepherds you raise.

Dear Beth,
What a great dog you sent me.
Max came in and just became one of the
family. He was house trained
in two weeks and is just a pleasure to be with. Everyone comments on how
big he is going to be and what a handsome face he has. His trainer, who
has worked with a lot of shepherds says he has never seen one quite as
smart as Max.
Thanks for sending such a
wonderful dog. The first month we had him he
doubled in weight and is
thriving. Hope you enjoy the pictures and wish you happy holidays.

Thanks for everything Beth!! I hope in
the future I have another female to send to you for breeding.
Jaguar is a wonderful male and you are awesome to work with.
Thanks Again!!

Beth,
It's been 6 weeks since we
purchased Max (Cerno) and I have to tell you again how
wonderful he is! He is not only beautiful but highly
intelligent and very lovable. I can't believe how much
he has become a part of our family. He goes with us
everywhere and I feel like he is one of my children. He
will graduate Puppy Preschool on Monday. He was the
youngest in the class and also the fastest learner. He
would pick up on commands after 2 or 3 repetitions and had no
fear with learning new things or going around obstacles.
Everywhere we go with him people comment on how beautiful he
is and ask where we got him. The other pet owners at
Puppy Pre are amazed at his intelligence and personality.
He is truly a joy! We adopted another German Shepherd
two weeks ago from a "Backyard Breeder" we had met
while searching for our dog. She had one puppy left that
she couldn't get rid of and called to see if we would take the
puppy for free (she had been asking $400 for her). She
is 1 month older than Max and although she is sweet she in no
way compares to Max in looks or personality. The money
we paid you for Max was VERY well spent. If I'm ever in
need of another German Shepherd I will definitely get it from
you. I also am recommending you to all my friends and
family.
Thank You!!!

"Hi
Beth... I went for a 1 mile run with Jado this morning and he
did wonderful. He didn't pull on his leash once. He is a big
teddy bear and I am sure he will be turning lots of heads when I
take him to the park! Once again Beth, you are a very honest
person and I will have no problem recommending you to others who
are looking for a quality German Shepherd and I am certain that
I will be relying on you in the future to find me a
young adult female for my breeding program. Thanks and may
God continue to bless you and your family."
